"Come on Sir Grumpy you can't stay inside all day until patrol you need to do something." Julianna said as she attempted to pull Jake up off Sam and Emily's couch. He was forced to stay away from the school and contact with anybody else until his anger and phasing was under control. Since everybody was at school or work Julianna was on babysitting duty. She noticed that he kept getting calls from a girl named Bella who she remembered Embry calling her Edward's girl but she made sure he declined all of them, just as Sam ordered. The last person Sam wanted Jake to be around or talking to was Bella.

"Why can I be around you and not Bella?" Jacob complained refusing to stand up. He planned to stay on this couch until he finally got the answers he wanted but it hadn't really been working for him.

Julianna sighed before putting her hands on her hips "Because I know how to act around big angry Quileute guys and make sure they don't phase."

Jacob groaned pissed that he couldn't do anything and reached for the remote. Julianna slapped his hand away before returning her hands to her hips.

"Don't push me pup." Jacob growled glaring daggers at her. He was starting to wonder how the guys put up with her, especially Paul with his short temper. She looked cute and innocent from first glance but she was becoming a pain to deal with.

Julianna could tell she was bothering him but she wasn't giving up. She still had a goal of making sure he did something today that wasn't patrolling or sitting on the couch. "Embry told me you like working on bikes and stuff. We can do that if you want." Julianna said trying to bribe Jacob.

"Fine." Jake groaned before finally standing off the couch. Julianna let out a squeal of victory finally successful with getting him up causing Jake to laugh. He had never heard such a high pitched noise in his life.

As they walked down the path to Jacobs it was becoming extremely difficult for Julianna to keep up with his long strides, she was practically jogging to keep up with him. Jake was about 6'2, for now, while Julianna wasn't even 5 feet tall. He was the shortest one in the pack but Sam predicted that he would probably be about Jareds height.

"Here hop on my back." Jake said bending down so she wouldn't slow him down anymore. He finally understood why the guys weren't bothered by carrying her all the time, she was so small that it seemed as if they were carrying a toddler. As the two arrived at his garage Julianna noticed there were two bikes, one slightly broken as if it had skidded across the ground and the other in perfect condition.

"This one only has minor problems, I should finish in about an hour then we can take them for a spin." Jake said examining over what needed to be done. After Bella fell off the bike he hadn't tried to fix it since he wasn't going to let her on it again anyway.

"I don't think Paul would want me to ride on a motorcycle and I don't have my license to even drive a car." Julianna said getting slightly embarrassed. She knew Jake was only being polite but she was so used to the other guys watching what they said around and to her.

"Oh yea sorry." Jake mumbled rubbing the back of his neck. He had totally forgotten that Paul was super over protective over her. Julianna giggled seeing that Jacob was embarrassed and started looking around at everything in the garage. He had tools scattered all across the ground while half finished parts were along the workbench.

"It's ok, I'm just happy that you finally got out of Sam and Emily's."

Jacob worked on the bike like he had with Bella but this time he wasn't dragging out the process so the bikes finished sooner than he predicted. Julianna sat on a stool with a wrench in her lap looking into space while Jake worked. Every once in awhile he looked over seeing that she hadn't moved but Emily said that this happened sometimes and she usually comes back to reality in a few minutes. Jacob waved his hand in front of her face after she had been in that position for a while but her eyes were glassed over and she didn't respond. After no response to him shouting her name Jake paced back and forth mumbling under his breath wondering what to do. He couldn't call Paul or the guys since they were all at work or at school and he didn't want to bother them with something that happened so often. Of course he had heard stories of Julianna and her mental issues but she had never done this for so long when they were alone, then again Jake usually wasn't with Julianna alone before since she almost never left Paul's side.

Suddenly Jake heard tools clattering on the ground and spun around to see Julianna running out of the garage. The wrench that was in her hand moments before on the ground now.

"Hey wait where are you going?" He yelled chasing after her. She ran across his yard closer and closer to the entrance of the woods. Julianna looked behind her as if she believed something was chasing her but kept running. Jacob caught up to her before she could enter the shadows of the trees and grabbed her around the waist lifting her off the ground. "Where are you going?" He repeated creating a cage around her with his arms.

"Let me go!" Julianna shouted squirming against Jake trying to break out of his hold. "I need to get away he is going to catch me!"

"Julianna what are you talking about?" Jake said before remembering the instructions Paul told him if anything happened. Paul had explained almost any problem imaginable that could go wrong and how to fix it. He explained that if she was in an open place for too long that she would either believe that somebody was chasing her or that she was to easy of a target. "It's just you and me here. Nobody is chasing you." Jacob repeated Paul's words over and over until she stopped fighting against him.

"Please don't let him hurt me." Julianna said pushing her face into his chest as if Jake was a wall. Even though Jacob was much bigger than her he couldn't give Julianna that safe and protective feeling that Paul always radiated. "We need to go back to Sam and Emily's. Paul said nobody can catch me there."

Jake was extremely confused as to the difference between his house and Sam and Emily's but did what she asked and ran them back to the house. Once inside Julianna locked all the windows and doors she finally calmed down enough that the voices weren't screaming. She described to Jake the man that constantly followed her around and how he had been following her since sophomore year. The man had never caught her but he never showed himself when she was around Paul, one of the many reasons she loved being around him so often.

Jake's phone sprung to life once again with Bella's call causing Julianna to jump off the stool she was sitting on. Jake yelled down to Julianna to answer it since he figured it was his father asking why he hadn't visited.

"Hello?"

"Jake?" Bella asked confused if she had called the wrong number.

"No this is Julianna, Jake is upstairs though I can go get him for you."

"Oh no it's fine really, I didn't know he was allowed out of the house yet." Bella said slightly annoyed that Jacob could be around whoever this girl was and not her.

"He's not allowed out yet but Sam says he will be when he gets everything under control." Julianna said not processing that she shouldn't be saying any of this, especially to Bella.

"Just tell him I called please." Bella said in a sharp tone before hanging up. She had been calling him for the past few weeks and to have somebody else answer was like a jab in the gut. She hadn't talked to Jake since he ran out on her at the movies but this was unlike him to ignore her, especially just to hang out with another girl. Julianna just shrugged putting Jake's phone back down and returned to the blanket she was sewing.

A few more days went by of Jacob and Julianna hanging out before Jake was finally able to go back to his house and not worry about phasing. Of course Sam still had the Bella problem but he put Jacob under alpha order to not answer her calls or go see her so he figured that would be enough. It wasn't. Paul had come home after having to patrol in the rain complaining about how when they went to Jake's he was with Bella and Sam was pissed. Jacob was in control of his phasing now but things were different with Bella, and Paul couldn't understand what he saw in her after all these years.

"She was dating this guy who she was crazy about but he left her and now she's moved on to Jake but still hung up on this guy." Paul complained holding Julianna in his lap. "I don't know what Jake sees in her anyway she's not a very interesting or fun person."

"Well maybe you just have to get to know her." Julianna said drawing patterns against Paul's chest. From how Jacob talked about Bella he thought she was the best person in the world. "I mean look at us. Almost everybody on the res doesn't understand why you and me are friends."

"True. But they just don't know you like I do." Paul said kissing her temple causing her to giggle..


"Hi is Bella home?" Julianna asked standing outside Chief Swan's house. Jacob had been worried about Bella all week after the pack found him talking to her in the rain. He had begged Julianna to go see Bella and make sure she didn't crawl back into the shell she had created. Paul put up a fight with Julianna going since it wasn't technically their territory but Sam assured him the Embry would be on patrol and watch her. Sam had figured out that he could convince Paul anything if Julianna was on his side, and Julianna was all for helping people. Especially when Jacob told her about the shell Bella became, Julianna didn't want anybody in that place since she had been there before.

Chief Swan looked down at the girl not recognizing the cheerful face. Bella hadn't brought home many friends from school but this girl seemed harmless. "Are you a friend from school?" He asked.

"I'm one of Jacob's friends." Julianna said smiling cheerfully up at the police chief. She was glad he didn't recognize her since the last time she had seen him she was being held down against a hospital bed being sedated since she had attack a few nurses.

"Bella is upstairs in her room. First door on the left."

Julianna skipped upstairs knocking politely on the door. After no response she opened the door seeing that Bella was sitting in a chair looking out the window.

"She looks like a statue." Tick thought while Tock was looking around the purple room.

"There are lamps everywhere." Tock laughed.

"Hi Bella I'm Julianna."

Bella didn't respond looking out the window at the sway of the trees. She was used to her dad trying to get her to talk to people.

"I'm one of Jacob's friends." She said hoping that would spark something in her.

Julianna was right when it sparked something but Bella glared at the girl with a look that could kill. "So you're the girl he is always with." She growled.

"Yea he would talk about you all the time. I worked on the bikes with him once to get him out of the house after he was sick but I could tell he really missed being with you. He was so mad when Sam wouldn't let him go see you. He punched a wall I think.

"Let's go on a hike." Bella said standing up quickly as if something clicked in her head. The sudden action shocked Julianna but she was excited that she finally got some life out of Bella. Chief Swan seemed relieved that Bella was finally getting out of the house and just told them to have fun not wanting to ginx his daughters sudden moodswing.

Julianna was practically running to keep up with Bella as they hiked throughout the woods for wherever Bella was searching for. Julianna had tried talking with her but after Bella didn't respond she gave up listening to Tick Tock and Tuck monologue everything she did.

After about 20 minutes they entered a vast field that Julianna had never seen before. Apparently it meant a lot to Bella seeing that when she looked around she gasped and fell to the ground. Julianna knew that she was hopelessly lost but she trusted that Bella knew where they were since she had some attachment to this area. Bella muttered something under her breath but Julianna couldn't hear what it was. Suddenly Tock screamed causing Julianna to gasp.

"We need to leave now."

"We need to go get Paul." Tick yelled seeing the dark skinned man across the field.

Julianna was frozen in her spot not knowing what to do but Bella seemed pretty calm, as if she had met the man before. Tick and Tock had a bad feeling about him and were pushing Julianna to leave but Tuck wanted to find out about the man. It looked as if Bella was talking to the man but Julianna couldn't hear anything, Tick and Tock were yelling to loud. When he appeared closer in an instant she could make out that his name was Laurent and he had a friend Victoria. Julianna was practically hiding behind Bella trying to stay out of the man's gaze. His bright red eyes were so intense and sharp that Julianna couldn't look at them directly.

"And who is your friend." He cooed to Bella after his monologue while his eyes were fixed on the small girl with ginger hair. He had a friend many years ago that resembled her and he was very intent on finding out if Julianna acted like her as well. After you've lived for over 500 years seeing somebody that caught your eye was new.

"She doesn't know Laurent. You can let her go nobody will suspect a thing she's crazy anyway." Bella pleaded.

"But she's so desirable." He said only taking his eyes off Julianna for a second. This girl had spiked his interests like Bella had spiked James. Laurent could tell this girl was not paying attention to the conversation or she most likely would've run by now. "Even more than you."

Julianna had totally lost control of her mind now to Tick Tock and Tuck causing her to not respond to Laurents threats. This confused him why she wasn't moving, she stood like a statue barely blinking once a minute. Her breaths were short and rapid but every time a gust of wind came Laurent almost inhaled her scent. She even had the same scent as her Laurent thought to himself. He needed to kill Bella first so maybe he could get some response out of her. The moment he laid a finger on Bella a loud growl echoed throughout the field snapping Julianna out of her dazed state. She recognized Sam's wolf right away but knew she couldn't say anything in front of the dark skinned man and Bella. One by one the wolves came out from the woods growling lowly. Laurent looked as shocked as Bella but knew what they were capable from the stories he'd heard. He suddenly grabbed Julianna throwing her on his back and ran from the wolves. Julianna yelped loudly at the unexpected movement and pushed against his back trying to get away. Laurent held his arm around her making sure he wouldn't lose her like he had lost the girl once before. Sam and the rest of the wolves eyes widened at what happened and instantly sprinted after him. All Paul and the other wolves could see was red.

"Sam what do we do we could hurt Julianna." Embry yelled as they chased after him.

"Separate them. NOW" Sam yelled as he got closer. Laurent spun around hitting Sam's wolf form sending him far back.

Embry and Jared attempted the same attack but neither got close enough to separate Julianna from the red eyed blood sucker.

"Jake we need to attack at the same time. You go for Julianna. I'll get that fucking leech." Paul said before pouncing at Laurent from the front. The plan worked because once Laurent was distracted by Paul Jacob separated Julianna from the bloodsucker. She backed up against a tree trying to make as much space as possible between her and Laurent. Her face was stained with tears and her breaths were short and quick. Laurent instantly spun around when he felt Julianna no longer on him and attempted to run back to get her. He successfully hit Embry throwing him against a tree but Sam and Jared pounced on him from both sides tackling him to the ground. As they ripped him into pieces Paul stood in front of Julianna guarding her from the gruesome sight.

Once everything was over Paul and Embry phased back (please just imagine when they phase back they just magically have a pair of shorts on. It makes life so much easier.) while Jared, Sam, and Jacob ran off to check on Emily, Kim and Bella. Paul crouched down next to Julianna not sure how she would react after what she had just witnessed. Her head was in between her knees with her hand covering her ears. She was mumbling something quietly under her breath that a normal person wouldn't hear but with the packs intensified hearing Paul heard her clearly.

"Paul's here. Paul's here. Nothing bad will happen. Paul's here." She mumbled that over and over as Tick Tock were still screaming about the man with the blood red eyes.

"It's ok babygirl everything's ok." Paul said scooping her up into his arms. He carried her through the woods while Embry followed behind the pair.

"Lie to me." Julianna mumbled as they got closer to Sam and Emily's. Embry and Paul just looked at her not knowing what to say. "About the man, lie to me about him. I don't need any more nightmares."

"They were contact's." Embry said.

"He wasn't a monster." Paul said quietly.

When the trio arrived back at Sam and Emily's Sam and Jared were holding their imprints while Jake had most likely ran to go check on Bella. The pack had tried giving Jake a hard time about Bella but he always shot back with the argument that Paul got to see Julianna after he phased and he didn't understand what was different with Bella. Sam's answer was always the same, that they needed each other.

"How ya doing pup?" Sam asked as Paul walked in with Julianna in his arms .

"Confused more than anything."

"What do you want to know?" Sam asked before getting a harsh glare from Paul telling him to watch what he said.

"Why did he grab me and throw me on his back. Tuck kept trying to tell me something but Tick and Tock were yelling too loud, I think she knew him."

"I'm not sure but he won't hurt you ever again."

"He knew Bella. He was going to hurt her."

"He's gone don't worry everything's ok." Paul said holding Julianna closer to him. If that was even possible. Once Tuck heard that she started crying, no wailing. As if she was devastated that he was gone. Julianna face fell blank trying to figure out what was going on. Eventually she pushed it aside and left Tick and Tock to deal with her.

Paul left the other pack members once they all finished dinner carrying Julianna up to her room. She had fallen asleep in his lap like usual snuggled against his chest.

"Gray please promise me you'll stop getting into trouble." Paul mumbled as he wrapped his arms around her and closed his eyes. "Goodnight my pup."
